Thank You Vino. the solution works fine untill the same email ids are assigned to a variable and this list is coming from a property file.


My Property File.
List="receip@xyz.com, receip2@xyz.com"

My Script
MailList=`grep "List=" /propertyfile.ini | cut -f1 -d"+"`
export MailList
mailx -s "Hi" $MailList < text.msg

The above code fails. help me out its urgent. Smilie
